i went there; i traded in my memory.

[semisweet]

i cannot stop listening to this song. do you ever listen to a song and you see, like, a scene it would play over in a movie? i can't be the only one who does this. this song makes me picture a movie, and it's dark and glossy and sexy, and everyone's young and beautiful and probably too thin; it's like the oc dropped into sin city, maybe. and there's this urgency because everything's about to happen and some girl is putting on knee-high boots and somewhere else a boy is picking up his guitar and leaving without looking back and our anti-hero, he's lighting a cigarette and watching a window, waiting for a light to go out.

or maybe i'm crazy. whatever, it's still a good song.
